If you were like me and wait too long to grind this achievement, this can be really hard in advanced ages because of strong defenses.

I was Age 6 and fight against castles with a lot of big walls, a lot of towers (heavily upgraded) and a lot of trebuchets/catapults (upgraded too)

To achieve this, I did the following - Prepare an army with 6 Ladder Invaders, 3 Trebuchet, 2 Battering Ram and 14 Cavalry - Use Saladin as Hero (Hero 3 for Saracens). If you have the second slot, use Maslama (Hero 2 for Saracens) - Search for a battle

The search is really important. You can easily loose! Idea here is not to destroy everything but only the castle.

Search for a specific layout where the castle is not in the center of the layout but on a side (or better, on a corner). The less tower you have on this side, the better is. If there is more than 1 wall to traverse, just go to the next opponent. If your opponent has some buildings outside its walls, it's better (but not mandatory).

When you found someone, send your 2 battering ram to destroy the wall. Opposite troops should come. Let them attack your battering rams, they should resist long enough to destroy 1 wall. You can assist them with one trebuchet. If there are some catapults or trebuchets, send Ladder invaders to focus them (and eventually to destroy them.

Once the breach opened, redirect battering rams onto the castle (to focus opposite troops on them) and send all you cavalry on the castle, ignoring towers (that's the reason why we search for a layout with not so much towers on castle side). If you have Maslama, send him too and use his ability to protect your cavalry from towers. Send Saladin and immediately use his ability on the castle. Send all trebuchets too and focus their attacks on the castle.

Your troops will be killed A LOT ! But with this brutal attack, all focused on the castle, you will destroy it in a breathe, especially with Saladin's ability.

I managed to unlock this achievement with this method. Searching a good opponent takes time... but you will destroy castles
